[Megathread] Grand Theft Auto V

[mvaliz]

3 days off??

Im a cop and my 4 days off fall perfectly on Septemeber 17th - 20th. And then I booked my next 4 off. 21-24th. Then 4 more off. So 12 days straight should give me a great start on the game. I cant imagine how long the replay value for this game will last, hell I still play GTASA from time to time and always have a blast just driving and seeing what mayhem I get myself into. Ahhhhhh just gunna be a long 2 months to wait

...you need to be interviewed by news media sources. A cop who likes to play GTA games. ^_^

Fuck guys. Tuesday. I think I have Tuesdays off.

''New'' GTA 5 Details Revealed!!


(still watching)

[Enjeh]

Also, all characters wont be available for play from the start.
We will start with one, and will be introduced to the others while progressing through the early part of the game.

They already have contacts, they are integrated with the world and lead a busy life - these characteristics should give players a sense of immediate and total immersion. That said, all three main characters won't be playable from the start. We want to give the player the opportunity to get to know the three characters individually, and explore the world as each of them, and it would not have been possible if all three had been available from the start.

Oh man all those great screenshots yet still 1 months and 2 weeks till Sept 17. This waiting is really killing me.

In order to still my hunger for GTA I dug out my complete edition of GTA 4 a few weeks back and I have been playing it ever since. I almost forgot how much time you can "waste" in GTA and how great the game still is despite being a bit outdated in terms of graphics and stuff. I have no doubt that GTA 5 will chain me to my Playstation for months if not years and this anticipation makes waiting insanely difficult.

[Enjeh]

Look for the world premiere of the official GTA Online Gameplay Video as well as coverage of first press previews here at the Newswire and at rockstargames.com/GTAOnline – this Thursday, August 15th.

Could not care less about the online part, but I'm looking forward to see more gameplay.

[Zogarth]

I just hope that they will make a proper port for this game when it comes out... and if they have the balls to make a sub-par port like GTA4, and still charge full price for it (They should still not take full price even if it is an exellent port, as it will come out later on PC). If they however do charge full price... well another boycut game. Yay...

[SirRobin]

I'm interested but not a whole lot. This "might" be the first game, for me, that I get for the console since RDR.

Did Nvidia leaked or not a PC release of GTA V during their earning conference call earlier this week.

http://seekingalpha.com/article/1621...all-transcript


here is an extract

The PC market is evolving. As entry level laptops face pressure from tablets. Yet sales of specialty PCs like gaming systems and work stations continue to grow. The disparity reflects how consumers use these different classes of PCs. Many consumers look for PC as a general purpose device they can use for browsing, email, social media video. But much of this can be better served by a tablet. In contrast, gamers are preparing their systems for a strong roster of games coming this fall, including blockbuster franchises, such as Call of Duty: Ghosts, Grand Theft Auto V and Assassin's Creed IV.

Either it's an error, they just list a few popular game for sake of example not researching if those are actually schedule for release on PC, or they are really discussing with rockstar for their "they way it's meant to be played" logo in the game, thus revealing that indeed rockstar is working on a GTA V release this coming fall.

What do you think?

[Enjeh]

What I think? It's going to get released to PC eventually.

[Clockwork Pinkie]

What I think? It's going to get released to PC eventually.

Even if I have it on the Xbox I'll still buy it for the PC when it comes out, the mods and omg how beautiful the game would look with ENB. Ahh!

Nvidia hints at Grand Theft Auto V PC release

Grand Theft Auto V is looking like it'll be one of the biggest game launches of this year when it arrives September 17 on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Unfortunately though, Rockstar Games have kept their lips sealed about a possible PC port of the game, despite every other major title in the series eventually hitting the platform, leaving eager PC gamers guessing at its status.

[Vankrys]

after what happened with red dead redemption, it's only normal i think that PC gamers were somehow uncertain whether GTA V would come to PC or not. So far no official announcement have been made by rockstar, but this is somewhat not unusual, last GTA on PC were always announved AFTER console release.

Still, why did rockstar never port red dead redemption on PC? either the game didn't do so well or there was some sort of exclusivity contract with console manufacturer, both of them.

But now we also got this statement from Nvidia.

“Please note, during our Thursday’s earnings call, our investor relations team provided a list of important games that gamers are looking forward to on PC this fall, and included Grand Theft Auto V on that list. This statement was made with the intent of expressing enthusiasm for the games industry in general, and was not intended to represent specific knowledge possessed by NVIDIA. NVIDIA does not have information on any possible PC version release of Grand Theft Auto or its availability. We deeply regret the error.”

But now we also got this statement from Nvidia.

There is no way they don't know target releases but if GTA5 was in September I would think they would have it up for preorder in steam by now.

i agree, that sound like damage control. i am sure nvidia are working with most aaa dev to improve their software and hardware. they however must have confidential agreement. for me, it is more likely that that that conference call was a slip up than a mere ignorance of the game market
